The New Poke-Amph!

Episode 062: Showdown At the Poke-Corall

Ash is fighting in the Pokemon League when a giant Poke-Ball sucks him up. He awakens to find Mr. Mime is vacumming his face. After complaining to his mom and feeling replaced by the miming Pokemon, Ash sits down to breakfast. Brock reminds Ash that they have to go see Professor Oak about entering the Pokemon League. Ash leaps up and heads off toward Oak's Lab. Meanwhile, Jessie, James and Meowth arrive at the Rocket Headquarters, not looking foward to the chewing out they'll recieve. Suddenly, the building explodes and they see something flying off from the burning wreakage (you can probably guess which Pokemon that was). They find a really ticked Giovanni admist the building ruins, who tells Jessie and James to finish their job, then boards a helicopter and flies off. Back at Oak's Lab, Ash finds that Gary is there as well. Gary tells Ash he's captured more Pokemon, while Ash says he is closer with his own Pokemon. Oak breaks up the argument by telling them that they both have different, but equally good methods in raising Pokemon. Oak shows Ash, Gary and the rest how he goes through his day, releasing all the Pokemon and letting them get excercise as he studies them. Ash and Gary appear to be getting along better as they learn how each other care for their Pokemon. Gary suggests that they have a battle to warm up for the Pokemon League competition. But before they can battle, Team Rocket bursts in, after numerous setbacks trying to sneak into Prof. Oak's lab, and demands Pikachu. Gary and Ash are about to take on Team Rocket, when the herd of Tauros that Ash caught from the Safari Zone breaks out of their pasture, ramming Team Rocket off into the stratosphere. Gary parts ways with Ash, promising to fight him in the League Competition two months away. Ash is left behind to fix the fence his Tauros broke with the help of Misty and Brock.
